Course Description:

Botox is one of the most rapidly growing markets in the medical field, with a compound annual growth rate of 12.4% globally (1). Don’t miss out on this amazing opportunity while adding Botox to your complete health treatment approach.

Botox is most commonly known for its uses in esthetic treatments to get rid of frown lines and wrinkles, however, many are unaware of its use in the medical and dental fields. Strabismus, hyperhidrosis, and preventing migraine headaches are among FDA-approved botulinum toxin uses. Off-label uses of Botox have been rapidly evolving, especially when conventional treatment modalities have not been predictable or successful. Among the off-label indications for dental patients are treatments for bruxism, gummy smiles, lip lines, and temporomandibular joint and facial pain.

Dentists are the experts in facial anatomy and are most familiar with the anatomy of the bones and muscles of the head and neck. Administration of Botox in the dental office is considered safe and predictable once the clinician has undergone didactic quality education. Numerous patients may accept and benefit from treatment in the safety of your own practice and therefore add to your practice growth.

This workshop will introduce you to Botox as one of the most researched medical toxins and the many uses of Botox in dentistry. It will provide you with a review of the important head and neck anatomical structures. The participant will learn how to perform a complete history, anamnesis, and examination for dental patients. Basic injection techniques for myofascial pain, esthetic treatments for Botox, and trigger point injections will be explained and practiced.

Objectives:

This exciting course is set up in three stages:

1. Anatomy and protocol lecture
2. Live demonstration
3. Individually-guided injection practice

• Learn pharmacology, diagnosis, treatment planning, and administration of Botox and other injectables.
• Understand the need for a didactically sound approach to education for Botox and trigger point injections for TMD, myofascial pain, and facial esthetic therapy.
• Understand how to implement safe treatment with Botox and other injectables for your patients.
